FAQs

Can I wash this dress in a machine?

No, this dress must be professionally dry cleaned to protect the hand-applied crystal and bead embellishments.

What kind of bra should I wear with this?

Due to the structured corset bodice, many find a strapless or adhesive bra provides the best support without interfering with the neckline.

Does the dress have any stretch?

The corset bodice is structured and offers limited stretch, while the skirt is made of flowing woven fabric for comfort.

Is this dress suitable for a beach wedding?

While it is appropriate for a formal wedding, the maxi skirt length and embellishments may be difficult to manage in sand; it is best suited for solid ground venues.

How should I store the dress between uses?

Always hang it in a cool, dry place inside a breathable fabric garment bag away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Missing or loose beads after wear

Take the dress to a professional specialist tailor experienced in working with high-end evening wear to secure loose embellishments.

Wrinkling in the maxi skirt

Use a low-temperature garment steamer from a distance, ensuring you do not touch the steamer directly to the embellished bodice.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Expertly crafted hand-embellished detail
  • Balanced design featuring structure and fluid movement
  • Versatile for various formal occasions
  • Sophisticated geometric aesthetic

Cons

  • Requires delicate handling due to beadwork
  • Not suitable for machine washing
  • Limited stretch in the corset bodice

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the garment, store the dress hanging in a breathable garment bag to prevent the delicate beads from snagging on other items. Due to the complex construction of the corset and the heavy embellishments, this garment is strictly for dry cleaning only. Avoid direct contact with perfumes, lotions, or hairsprays, as these can dull the finish of the crystals over time. When wearing, ensure you check the bodice fit to allow for comfortable breathing, as the corset is designed to be structured and secure.
